Set Up
1. Locate a clean, flat area of approximately 15 ft. in diameter that is
free of hard obstructions, abrasive materials, and sharp objects.
Carefully spread out the tube so the graphics and mesh surface
are facing up.
2. For quick inflation, unscrew the valve body from the base.
3. Using an 110V inflator/deflator or large volume
hand pump, inflate until yellow indicator is
between the A and B marks on the inflation
gauge. Quickly screw in valve body. To top off,
unscrew top valve cap only and add air. To
reduce the amount of air in the tube, turn the
lower main valve body approximately 1 full turn
counter clockwise or until you hear air escaping.
Note: refer to step 4 if the tube feels too soft or
you are unsure whether the gauge is working properly.
4. DO NOT OVERINFLATE! Inflate only until the jump surface is
taut and the bouncer tube reaches a vertical height of
approximately 28” high for the O-Zone Plus and 36” high for the
O-Zone XL Plus.
5. Inflate boarding platform until it becomes firm. Do not over inflate
by continuing to inflate beyond this point. Note: a firm platform
will be easier to board than a soft one.
Note: Some wrinkles may remain in the tube at this proper
pressure and will lessen over time. It is normal for the air
pressure within the tube to fluctuate depending on air and water
temperatures. It may be necessary to check and release some air
pressure from your product throughout the day.
6. Although the O-Zone Plus is not intended to be anchored
continuously for any length of time, a day-use anchor bag is
included. Simply fill the anchor bag with sand from the lake shore
or lake bottom. This will create a 40-lb. anchor that can be
emptied and rinsed after each use.

7. Carry (DO NOT DRAG) your O-Zone product to the water. Flip
bouncer upside down in shallow water. Tie a knot in one end of
lacing rope. Align large grommet holes
of apron over the three rope holders on
the underside of the boarding platform.
Starting at the outermost rope holder on
the bottom of the bouncer, lace
alternately between bouncer and
boarding platform. Loosely tie other end
of rope.
Flip entire unit face up in the water. Pull
rope until the platform is snug against
side of bouncer and there is no gap.
Check to make sure rope is spread
evenly between rope holders. Tie off
rope to keep the boarding platform snug
to the bouncer.
Periodically check to ensure the
protective apron is laying flat over the ropes and the ropes are
not exposed between the boarding platform and the bouncer.
Inflating and connecting the slide
1. Inflate the main body chamber of the slide. DO NOT OVER
INFLATE. Inflate until firm and the slide stands upright.
2. Inflate both side rails on top of slide until firm. DO NOT OVER
INFLATE as the heat of the sun will cause the air to expand.
Release air throughout day if necessary.
Note: Moisten the plug of the clear stem valve prior to inserting it
into the valve and push plug into the valve body fully.

3. Carry slide to the water and position
next to the O-Zone directly opposite
from the boarding platform.
4. Tie a knot at one end of each slide
attachment rope.
5. Working from the top down, feed the
rope through mounts A through F as
shown. Loop twice through point E and
finish by tying at point F.
6. Lace other side of slide in the same
fashion.
7. Adjust connection lacing, if necessary,
to provide equal tension on both sides
and to ensure the slide is squarely and
securely fastened to the O-Zone.
8. Move to proper water depth and attach anchor
bag rope to the single rope holder located low
on the outside of the tube, opposite the
boarding platform. Adjust anchor line to a length
slightly greater than the water depth and tie off rope. Leave a little
slack in the anchor line to accommodate the vertical motion of the
O-Zone when in use.
Before using your O-Zone, please read and follow all warnings and
safety instructions.

unexpected storm arises while using the O-Zone Plus,
seek shelter on shore. Do not stay on the product.

Troubleshooting
Won’t hold air:
•Check main valve to insure plastic ring is not caught under the
seal or cap.
•Be sure the valve and cap are screwed in straight and tight. A
cross threaded valve can cause leakage.
•Check stem valves to insure plugs are fully seated down into
valve body.
•Check for holes in product following the procedures in the
“Repairs” section.
Repairs
•Inflate the tube firmly and locate the leak by spraying the tube
with soapy water. Bubbles will appear where there is a leak.
•Determine the hole size and cut a circular patch ½ - 1 inch wider
than the hole.
•Remove air from the tube and dry tube completely where the
patch is to be applied.

work out any air bubbles from beneath the patch.
•Apply weight to the patched area for one hour before re-inflating.

dry completely before folding and storing.
•Deflate bouncer, slide, and boarding platform completely by
removing main valve bodies from the valves bases and opening
the plugs.
